Ezras Torah Funds

Ezras Torah presently has 1,297 donors who have established personalized loan funds or endowment funds with
us. The income of these personalized funds are dedicated to the support of Ezras Torah's programs for
Emergency Medical Needs, Interest Free Loans, and Hachnosas Choson V'Kallah. Named individual
loan funds can be started with a pledge of $1,000 or more. These named funds are usually made in ones own merit
or in memory of a departed loved one.

Wills and Legacies

Over the past several years Ezras Torah has become the beneficiary of over $4,498,771 from wills and legacies.
The funds realized from these bequests were allocated to Ezras Torah's general distributions and Ezras Torah's
Endowment Fund according to the expressed desire of the benefactor. It is known that making a charitable
bequest in a will brings special merit for a long life.
